@notfuzzyWarm thanks for your reply. I realize the 240/480V 4 wire Delta option is a high-leg delta setup. But this allows me to get 240 volt line to neutral voltage without needing to step down, so it seems like a good option to me. Why is it that people avoid these high-leg delta option? You mentioned that this is a compromise, but i'm trying to understand what exactly is the problem with this options. Is it harder to load balance? is it harder to find breaker panels or is it something else....

I have overhead cables coming right by my property at 7200 volts. Unfortunately my power company only offers those 2 options for step down oil-filled transformers. They would not let me buy a 415Y/240V step down, since they say they will have to maintain the transformer and they do not want non standard equipment.
